It's so good that these countries are finally showing a bit of support for the Palestinian people, but unfortunately I think this is a sloppy way to do it that will likely end in failure.

To recognize a state of Palestine, you must define it's borders. What will those borders be? So far these politicians have refused to say, it is much safer for them to be vague and noncommittal.

Surely it would not be the pre-1948 borders, that would literally wipe Israel off the map.

Ideally it would be post-1967 borders with mutually agreed upon land swaps. According to the UN this is the most just two-state division. But it is also a plan that has been proposed and dismissed for many decades. Israel would need to be forced to accept a plan like this.

One could also consider the horrific possibility that they will use some post-2005 borders, this would make the Palestinian "state" a series of small unconnected bantustans. This would probably end the genocide, but it would also give international approval to the apartheid.

At this rate it will only be a few months until Ghislane is on the rightwing podcast circuit crying about "cancel culture".

But I think Rogan would be too combative for her, he's got too much Alex Jones in him. And the Nelk boys probably learned their lesson after their snafu with genocidal war leader netanyahu. So who's going to rehab the world's most famous living child molester? My money is on Lex Fridman.

At what point on this graph is ecoterrorism justified?

No, you are just trying to obfuscate by introducing religion into the discussion. Islam is not fundamentally different from Judaism or Christianity.

Zionism is not a religion, it is a nation building project. It is ethnonationalist (Jewish supremacist), expansionist (attacking and invading multiple neighbors), and extirminationist (genocide of Gaza).

I think the definition of Nazism is "a ethnonationalist, expansionist, extirminationist nation building project", so Zionism and modern Israel is certainly Nazi. I understand other definitions of Nazism may include "Germany" or "1940s" so there may be slight disagreement on semantics.

We should celebrate the win for sure! But calling it "spine growth" is delusional, wishful thinking.

Does it allow synonyms like "no Nazis" or "no fascists"?

I don't feel strongly about Coldplay, but I think their style is "whatever Radiohead was doing two years ago, but watered down for the masses".

Nothing wrong with that, but it does evoke a hipster vs. normie conflict.

Over 30 aid massacres in the past 45 days. The death toll is over 1000.

2025 Gaza Strip aid distribution killings - Wikipedia

This is by design. The Gazan Humanitarian Foundation is a genocidal terrorist organization.

Sadly I think the Biden case is very relevant to this story.

Democrats hid President Biden away for months, but they couldn't hide his disasterous "I defeated Medicare" debate performance. Do you remember what it was like in the months after that? I remember being so anxious watching Biden public appearances, hoping he doesn't make a fool of himself. And then when he inevitably flubbed, I remember feeling such deep dread, thinking "oh God, Trump is going to be president again".

As the Republicans begin to give Trump the "Weekend at Bernie's" treatment, Democratic criticism will not land as hard because we have so much footage of Dems standing behind Biden during his serious cognitive decline.

Prepare yourself for "it's just a stutter"-type memes.

Electing another conservative warmonger like Obama would be a huge mistake.

We can do better.
